In Sacred Breath of Life

To imbibe the passion of day’s grace,
its sensory yielding
the face of each unique moment,
woven into time’s finest web,
silken strands are the steps we take,
the rise and ebb of our decisions made,
expressions that dictate
our very experience.
How pleasured the visions of life,
the beauty within each second of consciousness,
the depths and layers of countenance,
ours within which to delve
and understand, for a peaceful heart,
a silent knowing of play,
that we aspire to stay
within the honored bounds of right.
No motivation is needed,
seeded as we are with potential,
and love guides our heart and soul to know
this way of life is affable,
the only way to hold within us love’s purpose,
and in doing so we thrive in happiness
for all the peace we find,
we in vivid sight as once we were blind.
I cannot abide by violence and hatred,
negativity such a foreign state,
innate in some but so rejected in love’s arms,
I find it hard to believe, to what extent a harsh world stoops,
so lost in rapacious pursuits,
when peace within transforms the sins of past,
to a serene way to live,
imparted by kindness and empathy.
So in my world of lesser evils,
I draw breath in seamless repetition,
each one filled with love and energy
in which I thrive,
and keep my mind on spiritual matters,
the observer of truth and balance,
to imbibe only my chosen thoughts,
avoiding what I can of human rorts.
